About this property

Lazy Moose Lodge - Very popular, Highly Rated Lodge, and Minutes to the Park!

The Lazy Moose Lodge is a relatively new luxury log home/chalet which backs up to the Gallatin National Forest on a quiet dead-end street and only minutes from the West Gate of Yellowstone National Park. The home is privately situated in a grove of beautiful Lodge Pole Pine, Aspen and Douglas Fir trees and has a great view from it's covered back porch into the Gallatin forest, including riding trails and native forest wildlife (e.g., deer and an occasional moose or elk). It has 1,250 sq ft of living space, including 3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, Laundry Room, Family Room, Dining Room, Kitchen, Sleeping Loft plus a full length covered front porch and a very private covered back porch (dining porch!) overlooking the Gallatin National Forest! Consistently receives high ratings - e.g. "Beautiful cabin. We had a wonderful stay at the Lazy Moose Lodge. It was well-stocked in the kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room. Surrounded by trees, it feels very private. It was a great home base for a Yellowstone vacation."

Beautifully decorated in a rustic mountain lodge theme with all new furniture, fixtures and household items. Ideally suited for up to 6 adults plus children for a maximum party size of 10 (Note: Groups including more than 6 adults require owner notification and approval prior to booking). Simply one of the 'best of the best' in area rental vacation homes!

For large family or friend gatherings, we have other rental properties immediately adjacent to the Lazy Moose Lodge - e.g., the newly constructed Mountain View Lodge and the recently renovated Mini-Moose Cabin! Check them out at VRBO and the link below and if interested in renting one or more of these properties during the same calendar period, be sure to ask about our 'Village' rates!

Also, if interested, please ask about our referral arrangements, including horseback riding, trout fishing, hunting and snowmobiling.

Lastly, if you notice a gap in the VRBO calendar between existing bookings which is less than our minimum number of night stay requirement and are interested in renting within that 'gap', please contact us and we'll do our best to accommodate your request.

If you have questions about any of our properties, please contact us and we'll be happy to assist you with the booking process.

Absolutely perfect.
This cabin was exactly what we were looking for. It was a beautiful white Christmas. Well stocked, great location, fabulous hosts, and a very accommodating cleaning service that also allowed us to pay them to bring in wood and kindling for our stay. We highly recommend this cabin and would love to stay again. The area is beautiful, location close enough to town to get what you need, but buried amongst nature.

Great place. Quiet and remote!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Lazy Moose Lodge. The Lodge is quant and remote, and you'll appreciate the log cabin feel of the house. The lodge has everything you will want to make your stay perfect. The bedrooms and bathrooms are comfortable, and the kitchen is well equipped. The living room area is a nice size--big enough for our group of four. The Lodge is about 7 miles to downtown West Yellowstone with easy access to Yellowstone National Park. To get to the Lodge, you'll turn off Rt. 20 and on to a dirt road which can be rocky and bumpy, so be careful when you first arrive. We loved the remote setting of the Lazy Moose Lodge with a feel that is perfect for enjoying Yellowstone National Park. You won't go wrong with staying here.

Young family vacation getaway
Reasonably close to the West Yellowstone entrance. One bath (one sink) downstairs for up to 6 guests and one bath (one sink) upstairs for up to four guests. Hopefully, if you have a large group, most of your crowd will be kids.

So close to Yellow Stone National Park.
We had a great time site seeing at Yellow Stone and took a day trip to Jackson Hole. Horseback riding very close and the rodeo just down the street were also a hit for the whole family! House is very clean and cute! Plenty of towels too!

5 STARS!!!!
We just returned home from a recent stay at "The Lazy Moose", where each day our kids hoped they would be able to spy this so-called, "lazy moose"! We can't say enough about this property - it is exactly as pictures and write-up capture. We could tell that the owners take pride in their home and want to ensure that their guests enjoy their stay. Everything about the home is top notch and high-quality. The home was well-stocked with all the essentials. Though our kids are older, we even noticed that there was a pack-and-play and booster chair in the home! We really have no complaints and look forward to a return visit! Also, be sure to attend the rodeo right next to the property's neighborhood. It was a lot of fun and something different to do!

We had a wonderful experience in a beautiful setting in the woods of West Yellowstone. The owner provided all the information, directions and guidance to allow us a very positive experience for our arrival, the stay and departure. The owner communicated through the stay to be certain we were comfortable and addressed all our questions very promptly. We will most definitely stay again in the future!

Family Getaway
We spent 9 days in W Yellowstone this year and had a blast! The cabin met or exceeded our expectations. It was very clean, useful and came with many things other properties do not include. Things like garbage bags, paper towels, laundry detergent, dryer sheets, dishwasher soap and several other items. The property manager is very easy to work with and very responsive. The bedrooms were good size and each bed was very comfortable. The kitchen is small but very useful, stocked with utensils/cook wear and we were able to eat in with 5 adults very easily. The gas grill works very well. This cabin is in a great location right off the snowmobile trails. You will absolutely need 4wheel or all wheel drive to get here in the winter. We would highly recommend this cabin! The only issues we had was the slider door to the deck, front door were challenging to open/close and the garbage disposal stopped working the last night we were there but in no way stopped us. Nor did it have a negative impact on our stay. We will absolutely consider this cabin for our next trip to West Yellowstone.
